- The TCP/IP port number for Mail (SMTP Outbound) should not
be 25 if both of the following conditions are true:
- the PYTHEAS MailGate Communication Task and the Domino server
both run on the same system,
- the PYTHEAS MailGate Communication Task should take care of outgoing mail.
- Mail (SMTP Inbound): We recommend to leave the default value of
25.Please check that you have the same value in the PYTHEAS MailGate
Configuration Program, Your Mail server page,
Domino R5 Server, Connect to port option.
Use the Try connection button to check.
- Mail (SMTP Outbound): If both of the above conditions are true,
you'll have to set this port number to a value other than 25 (for ex. 2500).
Enter the same value in the PYTHEAS MailGate Configuration
Program, Outgoing Mail page, Listen on port field.
Please note: We realized that the TCP/IP port number for SMTP outbound mail
was not taken into account by the Domino SMTP task with Domino R5 release 5.0; however,
beginning with the 5.0.1a release this option works as expected.
